BLS does not publish this trade for the metro, so we used the Texas statewide median.

Local wages behind the labor line
Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 3 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Beaumont is 0.89 times the national level.
Glaziers (47-2121) carry 50% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Beaumont metro, so we used the Texas statewide median: $22.95 an hour against $27.44 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $18.67 and $26.49 an hour.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 40%) the local median is $28.02 an hour, which is 4% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $22.76 and $30.06 an hour. BLS counts 1,000 of them working in the area, 61.3 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is deeper than average.
General maintenance and repair workers (49-9071), 10% of the weighting: a median of $21.73 an hour, 9% below the US median of $23.84. The middle half of them earn between $17.69 and $27.19 an hour. About 1,750 work in the metro. That is 107.2 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 98.4 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the glaziers on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($26.49 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $170. At the 25th percentile ($18.67) it shrinks by about $210. The total moves by 1.9% or 2.3%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
For context on the local economy, BLS counts 163,220 jobs in the Beaumont-Port Arthur area. That makes it the 144th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.10% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glaziers (47-2121) | 50% | $18.67 | $22.95 | $26.49 | $27.44 | 0.84 | state |
| Carpenters (47-2031) | 40% | $22.76 | $28.02 | $30.06 | $29.12 | 0.96 | metro |

When to schedule windows in Beaumont
We use NOAA's 1991-2020 climate normals for Beaumont City (5 miles from the city center). These are 30-year monthly averages, not forecasts.
September through May is the stretch where exterior installation runs into the fewest weather problems in Beaumont (9 of 12 months). June, July and August have an average daytime high of 90°F or more.
Beaumont gets about 65 inches of precipitation in a normal year. The wettest months are June, August and September (7.4 inches in September). Inside the workable window, February and March are the driest, at 3.7 and 3.7 inches. The station averages about 95 days a year at 90°F or above.
Does the season change the price? Probably, but we do not have a sourced seasonal price curve, so the estimator shows a year-round figure and does not adjust by month. When you collect quotes, ask whether scheduling in a slower month gets a better rate.
